i did check just to be sure:

root at hera# ls -la /usr/local/etc/rc.d/vs*
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  927 Apr 15 09:08 /usr/local/etc/rc.d/vsftpd

vsftpd will start if i issue the command manually, but i hope i can get it set 
up that the daemon will start if i have to reboot my server.

thanks,
jonathan
